here – usually on such things I would expect
to get inundated by complaints etc.. however
in this case there was almost no noise – and
people have adopted readily. This I put down
to a few things
• A good strategy
• A good and transparent plan
• A good communication (honest, flexible &
transparent) with the migration parties
• A team focus to deliver on the above.”
